I got confirmation that the reviewers have my file on Saturday. Hopefully, I'll hear something soon. My surgeon still doesn't have a confirmed date when he'll be performing surgery again but he's saying end of November or early December. There are 13 people ahead of me when he does start scheduling and he does about 10 surgeries a week. How are you keeping yourself sane while waiting?

I got my official approval letter on Saturday, I went on my insurance company's website earlier in the week and got my status. My surgery date is December 11, and I am on day 5 of my pre-op diet. I am having no problems with the diet, two shakes and 6 oz of lean Protein and a cup of veggies per day, I started a pre pre-op diet 3 weeks prior. That has helped me combat the hunger issues. I sampled different shakes on the pre diet to find one that I could tolerate. I am looking forward to my surgery so I can start a new chapter in my life.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
